Switch off inspection of outbound protocol content

0

Janusgate Mobile's out-of-the-box (default) configuration is to inspect ActiveSync protocol traffic for both inbound (device to server) and outbound (server to device) synchronisations. Some organisations may have a ActiveSync content filtering policy which only applies to inbound synchronisations. For these cases, performance benefits can be gained by switching off outbound content inspection by Janusgate Mobile. This how-to article explains how to swtich off outbound content inspection in Janusgate Mobile. KB article 710 explains how to switch off inbound content inspection. If an organisation performs this configuration change, but then updates their content filtering policy (Janusgate Rules Engine file) to include policy that applies to outbound traffic, it is very important that they restore outbound content inspection by reversing this process.
